Purchase your airline ticket through International Business Seminars. As a bonus, by purchasing your airline ticket through IBS on the group departure and arrival dates, you will be met by an IBS Seminar Leader upon arrival at the airport in the starting point international city. The leaders will provide your transfer to the seminar hotel and the return from the last hotel to the final airport at no extra charge. In addition, your flight arrangements will be coordinated with other participant’s itineraries whenever possible so you probably will not be traveling alone. IBS has a fully accredited travel agency as part of its organization with agents who have more than twenty years of experience in the travel industry. Our agents are skilled at arranging flights and coordinating arrivals and departures for our seminar groups. If you wish to utilize our services in planning and ticketing your flight arrangements, we are ready to assist you. The process would involve you completing your enrollment forms on line including the Air Travel Request Form where you would indicate your travel plans. An IBS travel coordinator would design an itinerary that offers the best routing and most economical cost for your flights and contact you by email for your confirmation prior to ticketing. Make your own flight arrangements and purchase your airline ticket separately from the seminar costs. In this situation, you will be considered a “ground only” participant. Services such as transfers from the airport to the hotel when you arrive and return are not included. You will in most instances be traveling on your own. Please note that “ground only” only refers to you providing your own transatlantic or transpacific airline transportation. You will be covered by the complete IBS package once you arrive at the designated hotel in our initial city. Eurostar or other rail transportation or coach transportation from city to city and country to country while you are with the group is included in your Ground Only package. For our China seminar, the advertised price includes the domestic flights within China Whatever method you choose for purchasing airline tickets for the seminar of your choice, we strongly recommend that you do so as soon as possible after you enroll in the seminar. Air fares, taxes and fuel surcharges change daily - increasing for the most part. Once you have purchased your ticket, the cost is fixed and any subsequent increases will not apply to your ticket. All air tickets are nonrefundable but can be changed for a fee at the airline’s discretion. The cost of airfare mostly depends on your city of departure and when you book your ticket. For example, traveling to Europe can range from $1000 to $1800 or more. Winter fares tend to be lower than summer fares. Airfare to China can range from $1200 to $2000 or more. Please keep in mind that the airfare quote is only valid on the day it is given, as all airfare is subject to change and availability until it is confirmed and paid for. Generally, by booking your flight early, you will get a better air cost and routing. Remember: If you delay purchasing your ticket, you risk being subject to higher fares and/or undesirable routings.
